Turn On Lights when garage door opens

[christos 9]

Hello

I need some help from you guys...

i need to setup a lua code so that

30 minutes after sunset monitor the state of the garage door from the door/window sensor

if the state changes then switch lights xx for 10 minutes then switch them off

if the garage door is already open i dont want the lights to turn on at that time.....

i just want them to switch on if the door goes from closed to opened

can someone give me a hand here please???

regards

Christos

Hi,

I would set a variable at 30 minutes past sunset to the time you want the light to no longer turn on. Have a look at my scheduler to do that.

then something like. I have two doors so my sensors are 78 and 115

in the scheduler

and create a variable in the variable panel under panels menu named TimeOfDay

You can put all of your timer events in the scheduler so you will probably only need one scene for all timers.

luaDaySchedule:add("Sunset","TimeOfDay", "Evening" , "setGlobal", {"All"} , true, 30 )

also i have created a variable name TimeOfDay and have put 30 as value

here is the code

[ERROR] 14:57:49: line 10: attempt to concatenate global 'TimeOfDay' (a nil value)

Hello

Thank you very much for the help here Robert

So the final code with your help is like this

Please login or register to see this code.

just to make sure i'm getting the right stated i have added the debug so in debug i get these results

[DEBUG] 10:06:29: garage door is now 1 ( which means the door is open )

[DEBUG] 10:06:29: Time Of Day Is Morning ( it is morning )

30 minutes after sunset the state changes from morning to evening ( so the scheduler works just fine )

BUT no lights turn on when i open the garage door....

even though the garage door state is 1 and timeofday is evening..

I'm wondering if there is a bug somewhere here

Rob is your code working ok??

glad it is working

[christos 9]

ok

scene is working ok

lights turn on just fine when garage door opens at night

what i don't understand is why the icon on the garage door don't show the ( open door state )

nor the lights show on the web page that they are on!!!!!

Have you logged off and on again? Sometimes interface is non responsive on HC2. timeout of some form?

Also try configuring again if that does not work.
